RE: Setting Up EXTPROC

Make sure the extproc listener runs under a non-privileged account. In UNIX the "nobody" account should be used. Do not setup anything but an ipc connection. If you are running Intermedia make and need to do docment filtering make sure "nobody"'s environment includes the proper LD_LIBRARY_PATH or crxhx will not run.

I've recently been asked to set up an extproc listener and as this is the
first non-apps one I have had to deal with, I was hopping somebody could
give some pointers. I have RTFM, and <sarcasm> it's oh so clear </sarcasm>.
Anyway, how does one go about figuring out the <LISTENER_KEY>? Is the
<EXTPROC_SID> really a SID, or a program name (like FNDFS or OEORPC in the
Apps)? Is the ORACLE_HOME really the ORACLE_HOME or the directory the
program name is in (again, like the apps). Any real examples would be
greatly appreciated.
